I have made paper mache masks from milk bottles (cut ). They are perfect for
African masks. The handle makes a nice exaggerated nose. Another teacher I
know used them as a mold for paper pulp masks - they were wonderful (and
were done by second graders).

Here are some lesson plans you can "tweak" to suit you:

Check this Masks themes page with links to lesson plans:

Happy mask making. I have LOTS of links for African art if you are
interested.
